Abstract:The robust marker tracking and relative navigation algorithms are presented for precise UA V vision-based autonomous landing. To recognize the marker in close-range, the concentric circles are adopted as the marker with ellipse fitting algorithm based on Direct Least Square. We assume that IMU provides vehicle's attitude and altitude so that we consider GPS-denied situation. Also multiple ellipses are used to estimate its center pixel coordinate makes UA V land more accurately. To verify the vision-based relat… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based startup that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
